Perhaps this new look could be for a film role? Gerard Butler is set to star in a new comedy called Playing the Field, in which he plays the coach of his son’s soccer team, but in true Butler fashion he ends up seducing all the gorgeous mothers…could that involve a middle-aged grey haired guy?

Another possible reason could be the guy is just stressed! I mean there’s just no stopping him right now. He has two films set to be release later this year, Machine Gun Preacher, a true story of Sam Childers, a former drug-dealing biker who became a crusader for hundreds of Sudanese children forced to become soldiers. And the other, Movie 43, which sees Butler star along side a host of big name Hollywood actors including Hugh Jackman, Kate Winslet, Kristen Bell, Josh Duhamel, Naomi Watts, and Uma Thurman. Wow not a bad cast! Wait…I forgot one other, fellow grey-haired actor also appearing… Richard Gere, bet those two had lots to talk about, er, hair-wise…

Whatever the reason is for Gerard’s grey looking locks, one thing’s for sure, there’s nothing wrong growing out gracefully in my opinion. For what it’s worth, I think it rather suits him. It’s certainly worked for George Clooney!
